 Assembly of castor wheels

 A

Undo the snap-on fasteners and lift the motor block .

  B 

Turn collecting bin upside down, so that the opening is 

facing downwards . First insert the castor wheels into the 

holes marked with the number 4, then press in until they 

snap into place .

 Dry vacuuming

 After wet vacuuming, the appliance must be absolutely 

dry; dry off the flexible hose or tubes if necessary 

beforehand .

Never dry vacuum without filters or with 

damaged filters.

C

Use the tapered filter (17) in addition to the paper filter 

bag for best-possible dust retention .  Fit the tapered 

filter (17) on the underside of the motor head (2). 

Depending on model, lock at Pos . 1 or 2 with the swivel 

clamps. The tapered filter (17) can be rinsed out - to the 

exclusion of any washing or cleaning additives - if 

clogged or given a decline in the suctioning power . 

Make sure the filter is completely dry before re-using the 

vacuum cleaner .

D

  Firmly press down the filter bag on the intake 

connections and lay against the tank wall .

 E 

Place the motor block on top and secure it by means of 

snap-on fasteners .

 F 

Connecting the flexible hose . Remove the hose by 

turning the hose connecting piece and withdrawing the 

hose .

Assemble the accessories you require.
Connect the mains cable . 

Turn the appliance on with the On/Off switch (5). 

Suction control (10) allows you to vary the suction power.
– Sliding air trap closed = full suction power

– Sliding air trap open = reduced suction power

 Wet vacuuming

Always remove the filter assembly (figure 

C+D) before commencing wet vacuuming, 

since otherwise the filter assembly will be 

ruined. Do not forget to unplug the line cord 

before removing the motor housing from 

the tank.

Liquids stored in drums or other containers may be siphoned off 

using the suction hose or suction tubes . 
Keep the float valve (18, Fig. E) clean and free at all times. It 

will automatically interrupt vacuuming whenever the unit’s tank 

is full .
When you have finished siphoning off liquid, lift the suction 

hose/tube out of the liquid and hold its free end up to prevent 

liquid from running out before shutting off the unit.

After completion of wet vacuuming, please clean and 

dry the appliance and the accessories used .

 If unexpected difficulties arise

If your appliance does not operate to your satisfaction, you 

do not have to contact customer service straight away . Please 

check first as to whether the fault is due one of the following 

minor causes:

Dust escaping from suction sockets:

•  Has the filter system been fitted in accordance with the 

instructions?

•  Has an original THOMAS filter been used?

Gradual reduction in suction power:

•  Are the pores of the tissue filter clogged up by dust or soot?
•  Is the collecting bin full?
•  Is there a blockage in the nozzle, extension tube or flexible 

hose?/Stretch the flexible hose while the appliance is switched 

on – this will loosen the obstruction.)

If suction suddenly stops:

•  Is the float valve closed? This can happen if the unit is tilted 

well off axis or tips over . If so, shut off the unit . The float will 

then drop down and the unit will once again by ready for 

operation .

Water is coming out of the air expulsion openings 

of the appliance during vacuuming:

•  Is the collecting bin full?

The motor does not function:

•  Is there damage to the mains cable, plug or socket?

•  Pull out the plug before checking.

•  Never open the motor yourself!

 Customer Service:

Ask your dealer for the address or telephone number of your 

nearest THOMAS Customer Service .
Specify your model number and type when contacting your 

dealer – you will find these details on the rating plate . 

To maintain the safety of your appliance, you should 

have repairs, especially on live parts, carried out 

by a trained electrician only. In the event of a fault, 

you should therefore approach your dealer or the
